Q How should we start reducing air pollution?

The city's air pollution is becoming a major concern and it will take the combined effort and co-operation of the government and the people of Hong Kong to reduce it.

One method of reducing air pollution is to cut back on using private cars. Instead, HK people should try to carpool or take public transport. The public transport system is very convenient and inexpensive.

Hongkongers should also try to be more energy-efficient at home by turning off lights when they leave a room, and switching to high-efficiency light bulbs. For every household that switches, we reduce our consumption of energy.

I think these two methods are simple and can be applied to everyone in Hong Kong. If everyone puts a little effort in, we can reduce air pollution drastically.
